yeah, but a lie unanswered by the truth becomes the truth. you state opinon as fact and someone comes along reads your statement that Python is so much slower and believes it is true because there is no disententing voice to say, wait just a sec, this guy is clueless and has no idea what he is talking about and here is why.
learn how to ask questions instead of stateing opinions as fact and you might get a better response. if you had said, is Python really as slow vs Java as these 3 year old benchmarks seem to suggest, and then post what your own findings were and that might prove DISCUSSION instead of posting in a Trolling sort of way. No matter how many times you say you are not trolling and continue to post trolling style posts will make it true. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
